Oh my goodness it is soooo hard to believe that my beautiful, spirited Katie Girl is 12. She has been looking forward to this day for a very long time. I am sooo proud of her, I told her about 6 months ago that she needed to work really hard so that she can finish off her Faith in God requirements so that she can earn her award. She worked hard and memorized all 13 of the Articles of Faith and then made sure she completed the requirements. All she needs to do now is talk to the Bishop and she will have completed the requirements. I have tried really hard to make sure that it was them earning the awards so I just remind them (okay maybe I nag a little LOL) and then let them do what they are going to do. Alecia earned hers but Brandon didn't and now Katie has followed her sisters example.
Michelle was still here so she was able to celebrate with us. I really enjoyed having a shopping companion to help me decide what to buy. I had told Michelle how much Katie wanted contacts because she really hates wearing her glasses and she helped me to see that Katie was old enough. So Katie got a contact appointment for her birthday from Michelle, Robert, David and me. She also got a very cute outfit, a purple shirt and black skirt with a silver necklace and a scrapbook for her YW years.
I really love my Katie Rose.
